The poireau/leek? Absolutely one of the best weapons in the game. Not only does it hit 3-8 times in a turn, it's speedy like the scimitar, it has 100% pugnace, and it is UNBLOCKABLE. You can't block it, you can't dodge it (except with ballerines), you can't stop it, it's going to hit you every single time no matter what. The only thing you can do is try to get a 6th sense hit in before it gets to you, or disarm the guy. It's UFB with vandalisme or choc, devastating with fierce brute, murder on pets.

The only reason you don't see it in high-ranked brutes is that it's so rare.

but you have to remember about the low dmg. xteen pay attention to how often he throws the leek away quickly... In my experience the brutes don't like using the super rare weapons for more than 2-3 turns max.

A weapon that gets thrown away all the time gets some demerits.

tagza is level 13, from the time i made him he got leek level 5-6? he NEVER threw leek away except once

It is also my experience that brutes with rare weapons tend to draw them less and throw them away more.

Grizz is also absolutely right about the damage -- yes it does a ton of damage in aggregate, but a brute with armor/peau will decrease that from every hit, whereas one whack with the flail only gets decreased once. But if your strength is decent, like it is with Tagza, it's still a good weapon. Post us some fights against armored opponents?

Trouble for the bear is, he has no armor. Even with low strength you're doing 7-9 points and hitting 3-8 times, so it takes out bears. Dogs are toast right away, and wolves almost always with one attack, since they can't dodge it.
